For the North Atlantic...Caribbean Sea and the Gulf of Mexico:

1. Eastern Tropical Atlantic (AL92):
A broad area of low pressure located several hundred miles southwest 
of the Cabo Verde Islands continues to produce a large area of 
showers and thunderstorms. Environmental conditions appear conducive 
for gradual development, and a tropical depression is likely to form 
during the next couple of days while the system moves 
west-northwestward or northwestward across the eastern tropical 
Atlantic.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...high...70 percent.
* Formation chance through 7 days...high...80 percent.

2. Southwestern Gulf of Mexico (AL93):
Showers and thunderstorms have increased some, but remain 
disorganized, in association with an area of low pressure over the 
southwestern Gulf of Mexico. While environmental conditions appear 
only marginally favorable, surface pressures have been falling near 
the system, and it has a short window to develop further over 
the next day or so. However, by Wednesday morning the system is 
forecast to merge with a developing frontal system over the western 
Gulf of Mexico. An Air Force Reserve Reconnaissance aircraft is 
scheduled to investigate the system later today, if necessary.

Regardless of tropical cyclone development, the system is forecast 
to produce gale-force winds over portions of the northern Gulf of 
Mexico by Wednesday, and potentially heavy rainfall along the Gulf 
Coast by the latter portion of this week. For more information, see 
products from your local National Weather Service office, and high 
seas forecasts issued by the National Weather Service.
